EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is taken from Curtis's British Entomology, a seminal work in the field of entomology published between 1824 and 1839. The plate in question is number 184, featuring the Coleoptera species Calathus latus, also known as Calathus punctipennis. This broad, mainland European beetle is part of the Carabidae family, and is shown in intricate detail, with its elongated body, distinctively patterned wing cases, and prominent mandibles. The plant accompanying the beetle is identified as Asperula odorata, commonly known as Sweet Woodroof. The delicate, fragrant white flowers of this plant are a striking contrast to the robust and earthy appearance of the Calathus beetle. John Curtis, FLS, was a renowned British naturalist and entomologist, whose work on Coleoptera was groundbreaking in its time. The meticulous illustrations in his publication were produced by skilled artists and engravers, resulting in high-quality plates that remain an invaluable resource for entomologists and natural history enthusiasts today. This particular plate is a testament to the beauty and diversity of the natural world, showcasing the intricate details of a little-known beetle species and the delicate allure of its accompanying flora. The 1820s and 1830s were a time of great discovery and exploration in the natural sciences, and Curtis's British Entomology was at the forefront of documenting and preserving the natural history of the British Isles.
